Housing on file: Kendalwood
Kendalwood, east of Brock and north of Dundas, is one of Whitby's established postwar neighbourhoods, with bungalows, back-splits and two-storey homes built through the 1960s and 1970s on mature, tree-lined streets.
Kendalwood's mature trees are a big part of its charm, but roots are drawn to older sewer joints. Root intrusion is a common cause of slow drains and backups here.
Battery backup sump pumps help protect finished basements during storms that knock out power.
Faults we meet on these streets
- Original cast-iron and clay sewer laterals

Margin notes
Homes of this vintage often have their original water service from the street. If pressure is poor throughout the house, the service line is a suspect. Running a camera down the lateral is wise before finishing a basement.
